Bluestone

Bluestone is a timeless classic thanks to its great versatility and its technical features.

Bluestone is a compact dark limestone. The most famous are Kilkenny Limestone and Belgian Blue Stone. These materials have been used for centuries for indoor and outdoor applications. Due to its very dense structure and hardness, this limestone is ideally suited for kitchen worktops.

The remains of ancient carbon dioxide are what gives this natural stone its unique colour. Bluestone mainly varies in more or less prominent blue-grey hues.

Finishes

The finishes below are a selection of finishes available for bluestone. At Brachot, we are also constantly developing new finishes and optimising existing ones. So we always find the finish that best suits the material, your taste and the style of the house.

Sensato

This mechanical treatment gives the marble a slightly coarse and matt appearance, which is pleasant to touch. 

Sawn

Pure, untreated finish like after sawing a block of natural stone. The type of sawing determines whether parallel grooves or circular blows are visible.

Brossato

This finish softens the natural roughness of the stone and emphasises its intense colours.

Honed

The surface is sanded until a warm matt sheen is achieved. The grain size when sanding determines the final result.

Variety of applications

There are plenty of possible applications for this bluestone. You can use this natural stone for kitchen worktops, flooring, interior finishes and so on. This bluestone stands its ground indoors and outdoors.
